Abstract

General equations are derived for computing the amplitude matrix
for a nonspherical particle in an arbitrary orientation and for
arbitrary illumination and scattering directions with respect to the
laboratory reference frame, provided that the scattering problem can be
solved with respect to the particle reference frame. These
equations are used along with the T-matrix method to provide
benchmark results for homogeneous, dielectric, rotationally symmetric
particles. The computer code is publicly available on the
World-Wide Web at http://www.giss.nasa.gov/~crmim.
